The Voyager, on The Avenue, is also revamping its menu and drinks list as part of the £250,000 facelift - and adding a pizza counter front-of-house, so customers can see their food cooked in front of them.

Licensee Paul Kent, 30, said: “It’s been a long time, customers have been promised it for years - with more competition on the high street, some customers have left so we wanted to bring the pub into the 21st Century.

“We’re having a full internal refit. Everything from the bar to carpets and toilets are being completely stripped out.

“We’ll have a pizza counter front-of-house where chefs will cook in front of the customers - it will be a fantastic addition.
